PVS-Studio 3.44 New Version Released!

Jan. 21, 2010

PVS-Studio 3.44 new version contains several error corrections. The full list of corrections is given below.

Partial support of code testing for Itanium processors. Now the code that builds in Visual Studio Team System for Itanium processors may be also tested with the analyzer. Analysis can be performed on x86 and x64 systems but analysis on Itanium is not implemented yet.

We reduced the number of the analyzer's false alarms when analyzing an array access. Now, in some cases, the analyzer "understands" the ranges of values in the for loop and does not generate unnecessary warnings on accessing arrays with these indexes. For example: for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) arr[i] = foo(); // no warning from the analyzer.

The number of the analyzer's false alarms is reduced - we introduced a list of data types that do not form large arrays. For example, HWND, CButton. Users may compose their own type lists.

The installer error is corrected that occurs when installing the program into a folder different than the folder by default.
